About Amaze Me

Amaze me

Amaze Me is a series of high quality online learning resources
that uses the collections of the West Midlands Hub Museums and
other museums in the region.

Four resources have been created from the following collections:
Art, Local History, the Romans in the West Midlands and Science
& Technology. Further resources will be added in the future to
include Natural Sciences and Archaeology in the West Midlands.

By featuring objects from the collections of Birmingham,
Coventry, Ironbridge, Stoke-on-Trent and Wolverhampton museums, the
website aims to increase access to and knowledge of the regional
museum collections. We also want to encourage people to visit
museums and art galleries in the West Midlands.

The target audience for this website was defined as lifelong
learners, students, and people who are physically unable to visit
our museums. Amaze Me is not intended for use by researchers or
experts.

We wanted to create a website that made it fun to learn and that
introduced people to subject areas. We hope that it will encourage
people to find out more.
